This hilarious competition is the comedic spin on Lightning 100’s “Music City Mayhem” competition. Out of many submissions, a panel of Lightning 100 and Zanies staff members took on the difficult task of narrowing down the entries to 30 semi-finalists. These semi-finalists will compete in rounds of 10 during 3 live shows at Zanies. Each comedian will have 5 minutes to perform their best material. Out of the 10 comics per round, 3 will be chosen to move on in the final round. The judges for each round will include team members from Lightning 100, Zanies and various sponsors of the Show. The judges will rank each comic's performance, and the top 3 ranked performers will advance to the final round on Monday, October 23. A special celebrity guest will be announced for this final show.

Each live performance at Zanies will be closed out by an established local comedian and an MC.

For the first 4 Mondays in October, we welcome you to an incredible night of laughter. We intend to nurture and celebrate a local entertainment sector that does not often get the spotlight shined on them.
